The poll at the bottom... Who would win in a fight
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cantona would be nowhere near Neymar's dad and he'd roll on the floor like he's been shot

A French iconic legend showing his passion and love for his beloved team from England against a team in France. All the while having spats with a couple of Brazilians. One who plays and currently supports a French team largely because of money.
And that was just in THAT section.
Cue Pogba and Evra: "Hold my beer..."
You couldn't make this story up
Like the King said: 'I love it, i love it! I'm so 'Appy!'

"Cantona, meanwhile, had been in a bullish mood throughout the night, claiming beforehand that his old club would ‘eat the Parisians like I eat frogs’"

I hope the players in the dressing room got goosebumps when they saw The King walk into their dressing room to celebrate and congratulate them!
I'd be in total awe if i was lucky enough!

God, I love Cantona.
There have been one or two better United players since football came into my life but none have had as great an impact. We shouldn't underestimate the transformative role his ability combined with force of personality played in the psychology of the club. We went from a team that looked like a credible challenger to one that believed in its superiority. There's a through line from the upturned collar to "lads, it's Tottenham".

Not to underestimate the effect he had on the youngsters at the club as well.
I remember reports of Beckham and Scholes staying on after training with Eric to just practice stuff.

"this club... This is what we do"
Hopefully Ole's line from Wednesday is a reawakening

Absolutely. It wasn't just swagger and god-given talent. It was also setting an example that you have to graft to be the best.
